Jacob Josefson scored the lone goal in the shootout, and Cory Schneider made it stand up as the host Devils ended their tiebreaker frustration with a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets. The Devils had lost all 13 shootouts last season and one other this season.

■ Nathan MacKinnon scored his first two goals of the season and Semyon Varlamov stopped 40 shots as the Colorado Avalanche beat the visiting Islanders, 5-0. MacKinnon, 19, the reigning rookie of the year, had struggled to get on track this season. Islanders goalkeeper Chad Johnson had 18 saves in the loss.

■ Marc-Andre Fleury made 35 saves in his 30th N.H.L. shutout to lift the host Pittsburgh Penguins to a 3-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings.
